How We Work
As always, the goal of every Kime Decoration project is to convey a sense of place, colour, pattern and comfort within the context of the architecture and a client's lifestyle.
A touchstone of our interior decoration work is to create a sense
of safety; a place where past and present unite and interesting design
takes on a timeless effect that resonates today.

The Kime Decoration team discusses
history, approach and sensibility...
history, approach and sensibility...
Robert Kime Founder
"My enthusiasm around interior decoration grew out of a fascination with history and art; the idea being that a juxtaposition of elements makes for original and interesting rooms. Decoration projects today are the same as always - part interpretation, part reading between the lines, and part intuition." - 2021
Orlando Atty Managing Director
"Harnessing the integrity of Robert's approach to interior decoration, we realise that we don't really have a lot of rules. Instead we do what feels right for the room, the house and of course, the client. It all has to balance - just like shopping for antiques - there's the history and the tangible effect today - they have to add up."
Claire Jackson Head of Decoration
"Since joining Robert in 2000 I learned from him that every house has an identity. Now, as then, we work hard to see how each client can get the most out of their home. No matter the size of the project, everything we do is for a reason which is satisfying for both client and designer, making for good communication and an enduring sensibility."
Kelly Jay Decoration Co-Ordinator
"Guided by a layered approach, we work with our clients to create harmonious spaces which speak to the fundamental principles of Kime Decoration. Appreciating the history of an Antique textile for example, brings undeniable authenticity to project."
Shaun Lovering Specialist Decorator
"I’ve been working with Robert Kime Design since 1998, adding the layers of decorative work that speaks to their sensibility of comfort and ease. While our work is often in period homes and listed properties, I use the same approach in all projects - creating a fine-tuned series of finishes that work well with the broader schemes, which in the end look as if we have never been there."
